Green Toys Recalls about 50,000 Mini Vehicles.
The wheels and hubcaps on the toy cars can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children.
All cars are made of plastic and available in yellow, green, red, white and blue. Model names and numbers for the seven recalled vehicles or sets are listed in the table below.
They were sold in several models, including a fastback, police car, taxi, ambulance and as sets.
The recalled Mini Vehicles were manufactured from March 2012 through June 2012. The manufacturing date is represented by a circle with an arrow in the middle that can be found imprinted on the underside of the front of the car.
Cars with an "I" etched into the underside of the car next to the date stamp are not part of the recall.
They were sold by Mass merchandisers, grocery stores and independent toy and specialty stores nationwide and by online retailers from April 2012 to June 2012. The cars cost about $5 each or $18 for the set.
Consumers should take the product away from children immediately and contact Green Toys Inc. to receive a full refund.
